Pakistan Link

Search turns up nothing. This is one of many dummy publications in Pakistan. Fails WP:GNG. Störm  (talk)  10:57, 20 November 2017 (UTC)

 * Keep This ethnic Pakistani newspaper was launched in the US in 1994 for the Pakistani-American community. No way, it's a dummy newspaper as implied above and it's NOT published from Pakistan. I personally have been reading it in Michigan since its launch in 1994. It seems to have a substantial circulation within the intended ethnic community and I saw people reading it in Ohio, when I recently visited there. I'll try to find more Sources and try to improve it. Ngrewal1 (talk) 21:08, 25 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Surely, you should add sources so we can verify and write without WP:OR. Thanks. Störm   (talk)  06:59, 26 November 2017 (UTC)
 * It's done. I found news coverage for Pakistan Link (newspaper) from 2007 in a California newspaper Long Beach Press Telegram. Pakistan Link is based in Anaheim, California and is intended for Pakistani- American community as a community newspaper. It's distributed throughout the US and Canada, though. I also used 2 references from GoogleBooks websites and 1 reference from Greater Los Angeles Area local (GLAAM) website. Replaced all original research and company references. It's a short stub-article now so people can improve it...Ngrewal1 (talk) 19:57, 27 November 2017 (UTC)
